A component for an electrical connector, comprising a housing and a plurality of electrical contact elements, the ends of which are accessible at one end of the housing for connection to a mating connector component. The electrical contact elements are arranged in at least two segments which are separated from and shielded against each other. The outer contour of each of the at least two segments has at least two legs and a base side extending from one end of one leg to one end of the other leg, at least one leg of each segment forming an interior angle of 30° to 80° or 100° to 150° with the base side. The segments are arranged in a row with a shielding being provided between the legs of neighbouring segments.

An electrical receptacle connector includes a metallic shell, an insulated housing in the metallic shell, a plurality of terminals at the insulated housing, and a metallic plate. The terminals are arranged in two rows, and the metallic plate is at the insulated housing and between the terminals in the two rows. The metallic plate includes a through hole at a front portion of the tongue portion. The through hole has several through portions and a communication portion between the through portions. By allowing that the communication portion to be in communication with the through portions to form a through hole in an elongated shape, the molding efficiency for forming the tongue portion with the filling of the plastic materials can be increased.
